Answer:
Original Value= $361.21
Step-by-step explanation:
Giving the following information:
The value of the savings bond increases by 3% each year. One year after it was purchased, the value of the savings bond was $515.
<u>To calculate the original value of the bond, we need to use the following formula:</u>
OV= PV/(1+i)^n
OV= original value
PV= present value
i= increase rate
n= number of months
OV= 515 / (1,03^12)
OV= $361.21
Answer:
Use 49 ounces of the 14% allow and 41 ounces of the 23% alloy.
Step-by-step explanation:
Each ounce of the 14% copper contains 0.14 ounce of pure copper.
Each ounce of the 23% copper contains 0.23 ounce of pure copper.
Each ounce of the 18.1% copper contains 0.181 ounce of pure copper.
Use x ounces of the 14% and y ounces of the 23% to make 90 ounces of 18.1% alloy.
x+y = 90
y = 90-x
0.14x + 0.23y = 0.181·90
0.14x + 0.23(90-x) = 16.29
0.14x + 20.7 - 0.23x = 16.29
-0.09x + 20.7 = 16.29
4.41 = 0.09x
x = 49
y = 90-x = 41
Use 49 ounces of the 14% allow and 41 ounces of the 23% alloy.
Y = 4 - x
3x + 4(4-x) = 14
3x + 16 -4x = 14
-x = -2
x = 2
y = 2
I don’t know spanish sorry
